thanks coolchef...i sure am glad he didn't go off and join some crazy Cult!!!

No.

yes..first he is getting settled with his girlfriend and so forth..and as far as time goes I am pretty busy with my grandson but,even though he worked all the time(my son) I did see him during the week. He has been saving up for school.

:( Tough for mom! I will miss him and wish him well and off to Penn State he goes ...I had two that left before but that last one is hard to say goodbye to.As a mom ofcourse you think of everything from the day they were born to learning to drive.It is comforting to know we did the best we could with our kids in raising them and althoughI always knew in the back of my mind they grow up so fast(except when they are teenagers!!!!)ughGod Bless em!

Tonight :( Just two days after he scored 55 points against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Spurs All-Star point guard Tony Parker suffered a sprained left ankle late in the first quarter of the Spurs' Friday night game against the Miami Heat at AT&T Center. Parker appeared to land awkwardly after driving to the basket on the right baseline with 2:06 remaining in the first period. A televised replay of the play showed his ankle rolling as he landed. X-rays taken at the arena were negative. A member of the Spurs' training staff says Parker will have an MRI tomorrow and is likely to miss two weeks.

The wise old Mother Superior from county Tipperary was dying. The Nuns gathered around her bed trying to make her comfortable. They Gave her some warm milk to drink, but she refused it. One nun took the glass back to the kitchen. Remembering a bottle Of Irish whiskey received as a gift the previous Christmas, she Opened and poured a generous amount into the warm milk. Back at Mother Superior's bed, she held the glass to her lips. Mother Superior drank a little, then a little more. Before they Knew it, she had drunk the whole glass down to the last drop. "Mother," the nuns pleaded, "Please give us some wisdom before You die. She raised herself up in bed with a pious look on her face and Said, "Don't sell that cow."
